Romans 8:28 - And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose.

The vision for Jewel in the Rough was birthed in 2009 when I decided to write a book to encourage single women. I created the Jewel in the Rough Outreach blog in December 2013 to encourage women and share some of the revelations I received as a single.  As I networked with singles throughout the community, I realized that many of the issues we discussed were passed down in the family from generation to generation. Many of us were making the same mistakes because we lacked the understanding, wisdom, and God-given confidence to make better decisions. Over time I felt the urge to also reach out to our youth to help them overcome negative generational cycles and prepare them to engage in  healthy relationships. As a result,  Divine Assistance which is an outreach to meet the needs of not just singles but families within the Raleigh/Durham communities, was birthed in January 2015. The mission of the outreach is to raise awareness of the issues that are contributing to broken homes by providing adults and youth with scripture based resources and programs that will help to produce successful individuals and healthy families within the community. Some of the workshops/programs that will be offered are:


  • Work/life Balance 
  • Money Management
  • Overcoming Your Past
  • Living and Eating Healthy
  • Discovering Your Gifts
  • How to Become a Home Owner
  • How to Become an Entrepreneur
  • Self Defense 101 
  • Getting to Know You 
  • Computer Programming Classes for Youth (Grades 2 - 6)
  • Saturdays Are For STEM Program (Grades 2-6)
  • Counseling
  • Food Pantry

Our vision is to build a community center to house our programs and provide a safe environment for our youth and family and we need your help. Divine Assistance, INC. is a 501(c)3 organization and we welcome all donations to help us reach as many families and youth in the community as possible.  We look forward to serving you as we continue to Refine our community one single at a time and watch families take what was meant to break them and Transform it into Purpose.
